compared to the last few i've seen...not sure why i watch it, purely because it's football and it's on tv

sure, women's football will always be seen as "shit" by the top 4-ists and the cheap joke brigade, but it's getting better in quality. arsenal ladies are a team who play some tasty free-flowing football much like the men, difference being, the ladies score goals. arf.

i think the problem with women's football in britain is generally that all the teams except arsenal are pretty shit (everton are getting there now though, mind), the fact they can win 51 league games on the trot is just...silly

also, the other problem is that the profileration of goalie goolies at the world cup's given the cheap joke brigade endless streams of material

I read that as "it's much like watching your local non-league side". Which it isn't, but that isn't what you meant and I see that now, you were talking about the situation of it being ok if you accept it for what it is. Which it is. I agree.

getting at least 20 goals/season in that league with keepers like that. It's not an exaggeration to say I've played against Sunday League keepers who are more technically sound; at the very least, they don't push every single fucking shot right back into the line of play.

Outfield, I think it's a lot more positive but a lot of them have a tendency to make absolutely ridiculous decisions on the ball and a few of the defender are pretty piss poor technically.

but it never happens. The standard is so much worse. Even the professional teams are worse than some boys playing down the park. We have a girls team at uni and the ball control is awful, the shooting and passing is erratic and they have no spacial awareness. Obviously there are reasons for this- it is still only played by a few girls and only recently been considered as a viable sport for girls.

to a summer league. Once it has, there is a chance it might get backing from a TV company and there will be more money involved and the standad will improve. Because at the minute if people are interested in football they are always going to pick the mens game just because it's so much better. In the summer however there's a chance people will watch just because it's football.
